Diet or disaster ?

[Ozzie87]

Hi everyone, I'd just like to get some advice on diet, i eat pretty well as far as I know, but I'm sure I could make some improvements. I'm not a pro lol but that doesn't mean I don't make a lot of effort! I'm 22, 5'10/11 180lbs (natural obviously). I eat 5-6 times a day (with an extra snack a workout days usually), each meal contains 45-60g carbs (only 30g before bed), 35-50g protein and no more than 20g fat (I'd hope). I mix up my protein sources throughout the day, I eat chicken, eggs, beef, milk, low fat cheese and occasionally some tuna of other fish. At least 75% of the carbs come from wholegrain bread or oats. I don't eat ANY junk. I'm currently bulking, This might be a bit vague.............. comments? advice? Thanks in advance

How long have you been on that diet and what are your results so far?

Seems like youre good to go...I was just limit the carbs after 3-4pm to avoid any fat gain.

Hows the cardio/training routine?

Ill try to hit all of these:

1) AAS may "accidentally" limit fat gain simply due to the fact itll help you build muscle quicker. More muscle = faster metabolism.

2) Carb amount looks good (especially if you havent noticed any significant fat gain so far). To be on the safe side though, why not try 55g per meal for the first 4 meals then 25g per meal for the last 3. See if you continue making strength and size gains to your liking. If you are, then you know theres no reason to increase the carbs and therefore risk potential fat gain.

3) Keep in mind, however, that fat gain is to be expected during any bulking cycle. So dont get discouraged if you have to loosen the belt a tad.

4) For cardio, try doing a steady walk on a treadmill at full incline. You wont have to worry about sacrificing gains while at the same time youll build your endurance. Try 15-30 mins 2-3 times per week.

5) I would replace the tricep kickbacks with something like skull crushers or close grip bench. Better overall tricep workout.

Whats wrong with the knee and how long will it be that way? If youre able to do heavy deads it cant be that bad right?
